Stefan: This is really good news. When I first proposed the GTK+ front-end for YaST as part of the GSoC last year (or was it 2006?), part of the proposal was that YaST-GTK+ should be HIG compliant. I personally think this should still be the goal in order to make it fit seamlessly into a …

New Wine and New Brooms…
New Wine started yesterday, A’s there with K, M and M and it sounds like they’re having a good time, the weather notwithstanding.
